In most cases, our engineers log into Mon and use the "host disable" or "service disable" to stop montoring the stuff that's about to go down, and re-enable them when the maintenance is over. Sometimes, we just ACK whatever's broken when Mon starts alarming. If I had a really big planned outage I would comment out big chunks of the config file and restore it after the window. > Or am I missing a feature to have mon check it's configuration > file and reload if it changes? You are - look up "reset Mon" in the CGI or the API. You can also send Mon a HUP signal to make it reload its config. _______________________________________________ mon mailing list mon@linux.kernel.org http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/mon
